One Step Anti Syphilis Strip Test is a rapid direct binding test for the visual detection of anti syphilis antibodies in serum as an aid in the diagnosis of syphilis infection.Test results are read visually without any instrument.It is based on the principle of double antigen sandwich immunoassay for determination of syphilis antibodies in serum.Purified recombinant syphilis antigens are employed to identify anti Syphilis antibodies specifically.This one step test is very sensitive and only takes about 10 to 15 minutes.

Specimen Collection

For serum,collect blood into a container without anticoagulant.Allow the blood to clot and separate the serum from the clot.Use the serum for testing.

If the specimen cannot be tested on the day of collection, store the serum specimen in a refrigerator or freezer.

Bring the specimens to room temperature before testing.Do not freeze and thaw the specimen repeatedly.

Immerse the strip into the serum with the arrow end pointing towards the serum.Do not immerse past the marker line.Take the strip out after 5 -10 seconds and lay the strip flat on a clean,dry,non-absorbent surface(e.g.,mouth of the serum container)
